Did you see my post on this?
Cam Position Sensor Replacement

I replaced both cam sensors. I did not have all 3 codes like you do but after I replaced the passenger side sensor I got a code for the drivers side sensor. I replaced that and the code would not go away. So I took it to a indy shop and they found the passenger side cam positioning solenoid was bad. They replaced it and I have been code free for over a year.

Edit: I did not have to remove anything except move the AOS out of the way for either sensor.
